Output position and word relatedness effects in a DRM paradigm: Support for a dual-retrieval process theory of free recall and false memories

Article Abstract:

Five experiments were conducted to investigate predictions, derived from a dual-retrieval process approach to free recall, about false memories in a Deese-Roediger-McDermott (DRM)-like paradigm. Results are consistent with the notions that there are two successive retrieval processes in free call, that items are recalled in ascending order of strength during direct access and descending order of strength during reconstruction from gist.

The episodic memory and inhibition accounts of age-related increases in false memories: a consistency check

Article Abstract:

The previously postulated inhibition account and the episodic memory account for the age-related increase in associatively based false memories are examined. It is observed that episodic memory completely mediates the influence of inhibition making the findings consistent with the episodic memory account.
